They’re a very old white person, and they will never stop watching race conspiracies in mainstream US news. So there’s no use in trying to change things right?

I wish I could sit at the dinner table with the rest of my partner’s family without this hyper-racist person sitting with us. I’ve once cried myself to sleep for three nights straight after a dinner. What this person said was bad enough that I would’ve preferred they called me a slur instead.

They specifically asked my partner if they were a insert my race-sympathizer. As if to be my race is to be the same as a Nazi, and that its weird to have sympathy for people of my race. No one counts my race as white, btw. My people also have some socialist history so they might automatically suspect communist relation with every insert my race person they meet. They read a Nazi magazine disguised as normal news, so I think they think communists are a threat worse than Nazis.

      directly opposed or contrasted; mutually incompatible

      I’d never heard of any other definition but apparently it’s got some specialized archaic or academic meaning I don’t understand to. Commonly it means “direct opposite”
